Tips for teachers from video:
• don’t pour from an empty cup - your emotional well being must be intact to support others
• try not to take grading home- work life balance is essential for avoiding burn out
• self care is caring for your students

Quality education being my goal I’m sharing this resource to expand how people view equality and discrimination. There are numerous barriers to quality, comfortable education. LGBTQ+ resources are not extra, they’re necessities. #webt23

No student should face discrimination because of who they are.

At ED, @EDcivilrights works to ensure ALL students have access to an education free from discrimination & harassment based on sexual orientation & gender identity: https://t.co/dl7DyE2Mrt

Putting the movement for equality for those with disabilities in the hands of those with disabilities is a massive step in the right direction in my opinion. #webt23

“I didn’t know if others would share my same experience and support me in dissecting the issue and brainstorming, but they did!” This article also talks about the benefits of having a community - something that is central in this course. This is a council I didn’t know existed

[Ashley Baker @Bakera_15]

“It is beholden on us as school staff … to create a space for our students to be unique” : equality is not just about access, but embracing all walks of life and giving them access to an environment they can both learn and grow into themselves. #webt23

How can unicorns help students learn their best? 🦄

Brain Coleman, @ASCAtweets' 2019 School Counselor of the Year, says that embracing our own unique qualities – our strengths, challenges, experiences, & perspectives – allows students to do the same.

Diana is a young woman who's raising her voice to fight for environmental justice for families like hers.

She expressed interest in joining the next generation of clean energy, conservation, and climate resilience workers in our American Climate Corps —

So, I gave her a call.

Composting is a wonderful way to reduce waste. But many people don’t know how to start, what can be composted, or think they don’t have the room. Here is a link to easy composting ideas that take up minimal room: https://t.co/PhcgcoH8px

This is an interesting clip The idea that selling a book deemed "obscene" can be a felony charge, but certain groups also want to arm teachers. Personally, I think the legislatures should have to take a comprehensive assessment on the book (like a student) before banning anything

[Christiane Amanpour @amanpour]

“I was going over a list of books that are banned in Tennessee [schools] and… the list was really staggering,” says novelist Ann Patchett. “Yet at the same time, we’re not doing anything to keep our children safe from guns… It’s ludicrous and an embarrassment… It’s a crime.”

1st a reminder: correlation is not causation. That said, the opportunities, or lack thereof, afforded to citizens w/o a college degree affect the overall quality of life and in turn, life expectancy. This is why equal access to higher education is a must.

Brain breaks are important, creativity is important. Information overload is harmful.

[𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 @DrBradJohnson]

SEL in schools used to thrive through recess, unstructured play, Music, Art, and PE. But with increased focus on testing, these crucial areas have dwindled, leading to students lacking essential social/emotional skills and increased misbehavior.
